Awards & Acc-O-Lades

Hi everyone, Katie here.

We're very honored to have received some super cool awards recently. We were given THREE from some of our bestest friends and we're really excited to pass them onto even more friends. You've probably seen them a lot being shared around the blogosphere, but that doesn't make them any less special to those receiving them and those giving them.

We Get By With A Little Help From Our Friends

First, we want to thank our friends who gave us these awesome awards.

We received the One Lovely Blog Award from Kizzie Cat. We love Kizzie and her human Julie. They have a beautiful blog with gorgeous photos and something they call "What's the Word" which inspires many of their posts.

Sheba from My Dog Sheba's Life Story (yes, you read that right...DOG) awarded us with the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. Sheba is a Dogue de Bordeaux and Rottweiler cross, which sounds very regal and strong. He's a talented blogging Brit and lives across the pond with his cat, Cody. Do you think he woofs with an accent?

Layla from Cat Wisdom 101 gave us the super cool Illuminating Blogger Award. We think Cat Wisdom is pretty illuminating and we are very flattered to receive their recognition. Cat Wisdom 101 is a wonderful place for humans to learn everything from the serious to the silly about us cats. Even though I'm way past 101 and well on my way to Advanced Cat Wisdom, I still like to visit so that I can quiz Glogirly on what she's learned. And correct her on what she's screwed up.

Some awards ask for seven secrets, some for 10 favorites, some a single illuminating fact. We're going to mush it all together and give you -Katie's Top 7 Not-So-Secret Secrets

The only requirement of winning is a smile.
Some winners may choose to share 7 not-so-secret secrets and pass the award onto more friends.
Some winners may also choose to do a happy dance.
All of the above are considered optional.

And Did You Hear?
Just this week we were named one of the Top 25 Cat Blogs by Bel-Rae V-E-T Tech! I'm a little concerned that a V-E-T tech school even knows who I AM. In fact I've been napping with one eye open ever since I heard the news. Thank COD they are in Colorado and a long, long way from the townhouse. Glogirly says I should be humble and gracious and recognize all of the other really cool blogs that we are on the list with. I don't remember seeing humble and gracious in my Cat Handbook. Can anyone help me out here?

You can check out all of the great blogs on Bel-Rae's Blog. I think you'll recognize a few. Congratulations to ALL of the blogs!

Congratulations Katie for all of your awards and acolades,And THANK YOU for nominating Speedy for his illuminating award.Right now he's doing his happy bunny dance and binking around chanting *Katie* so I think he thanks you too.xo Speedy's mun and Speedy

I had no idea you went nose to nose with a Dog, maybe there's hope that I can meet you for real too? Not just the Flat version? Hmmm, I guess I'm assuming your previous meeting went well PLUS I still have a little work to do too!! :)

OMG YOU ARE FUNNY!!! First...CONCATULATIONS on ALL of your awards...even the Vet Tech School one!! OMG your honesty pertaining to that one was hilarious!! I saw that too and was like "A VET School?

Katie I loved your modeling session you have style and flare no wonder you got so many awards this week. Also a pettie you might want to convince Gloman and Glogirly to give you a shelf for all those awards.

FaRADaY: *grabs mike from Max* AN AWARD? MEEE? *modest look* It was nothing. Rilly. I want to thank all my many fans, the catnip dealer, the dairy farm, the fishmonger and WAND Toy makers everywhere who have made me the cat I am toda--
